Chapter 242: Argus Is the Good Guy? Dumbledore Is Controlling Me?

"So, Sirius Black came to Hogsmeade to sneak into Hogwarts and kill Harry?"

Rosmerta's voice broke the awkward atmosphere and woke Harry up from his shock.

"But that's not the worst."

Alan Mitchell, who had always been invisible, spoke up.

"We now suspect that Sirius Black will contact some former Death Eaters."

"Many of them are from pure-blood families. If he really contacts them..."

Allen didn't finish what he said, but several people frowned quietly.

These people all know that many people back then claimed to be controlled by the Imperius Curse, but in fact most of them were excuses.

Compared to the Death Eaters imprisoned in Azkaban, they are just not that... loyal.

If Sirius really contacted them, there might be one or two who would not give up on Voldemort.

Once they take action, it will greatly increase the difficulty for the Ministry of Magic to capture Sirius.

"Alan is right. The professors at Hogwarts need to take classes. The area of ​​Hogsmeade is too big. If we only rely on the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic, there will be insufficient manpower." Fudge opened a bottle of red wine and prepared for himself Pour a glass.

"So, I ask for Mr. Grindelwald's help."

"Compared to the Ministry of Magic, the Saints may have a wider range of sources and a wider search area."

"This is what we, as members of the British magical community, should do." Fudge had already negotiated terms with Abernathy in advance before Argus arrived.

What I am saying now is just for Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall.

Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore didn't say anything, but Rosmerta looked at Argus in confusion.

It seemed that he didn't expect that he could actually make decisions for the Saints.

"Aren't there any measures to protect Harry Potter in Hogwarts Castle?"

"What if Sirius breaks into Hogwarts?"

Rosmerta asked many people's doubts.

Dumbledore raised his eyes and looked at Argus: "There is no need to worry about Harry's safety."

"Mr. Grindelwald will protect him."

In the doubtful eyes of everyone, Yagus shrugged.

"It's not the first time anyway."

"I have been protecting Harry since he entered school."

"But...he doesn't seem to appreciate it."

Others didn't quite understand the meaning of Yagus's words, and they only thought that Yagus was complaining about Harry's lack of understanding.

But Harry felt as if a bombshell had been dropped in his head.

Yagus’s words kept echoing in my ears.

He's been protecting me... He's been protecting me!

Harry recalled that he was taken advantage of by Quirrell in his first year, and that he was attacked by a basilisk and Lockhart in the Chamber of Secrets last school year...

He also once wondered if someone was secretly protecting him.

But this grandma was quickly thrown out of her head.

The reason is simple, he didn't find any traces, and the name of the savior made him mistakenly think that he was omnipotent!

That’s how it should be!

But what Yagus said today gave him a major impact.

He even didn't know how to face Yagus.

The other party has been trying his best to protect himself, but he... what he is doing!

He kept recalling his experience with Yagus in his mind, from the first time he met him to the aggrieved moment when Yagus confessed to protect himself but he didn't understand.

There seemed to be a knife stirring repeatedly in my heart.

In the whole room, only Dumbledore understood what Argus meant.

But he didn't know Harry was hiding here.

"I will focus on Harry's safety."

"That's good. Principal Dumbledore is responsible for planning Harry's growth from childhood to adulthood. With the principal's guarantee, I can feel more relaxed."

Argus's seemingly ordinary words made Harry completely unable to control himself.

What did Yagus mean by what he just said?

What does it mean that I have been planned by Principal Dumbledore since I was a child?

Could it be that...everything about me was arranged by Principal Dumbledore?

impossible! This is impossible!

How could Principal Dumbledore...

Everything Harry heard today was too unbelievable for him.

Dumbledore was the person he respected the most after coming to the wizarding world and was also his guiding light.

But now, Argus told him that even Dumbledore had hidden something from him and secretly planned and controlled everything about him.

This was simply unacceptable to him.

Harry's mind was in a mess now, he couldn't think at all, he just wanted to escape from here as soon as possible.

Find a place to be quiet!

Others did not sense any ambiguity in Yagus's words.

Rosmerta also felt that Argus was praising Dumbledore for being responsible.

Professor McGonagall comforted him softly: "Mr. Grindelwald, you have done a great job."

"I think Mr. Potter's lack of understanding is only temporary. One day in the future, when he knows about your help, he will be grateful and understand you."

Fudge also joined in the fun: "Professor McGonagall is right, there are no quarrels between friends!"

"Friends..."

Argus's hesitant words, combined with his wry smile, allowed Harry to break through his defenses again.

Annoyance, regret!

Tormented, he couldn't help but shed tears.

Especially when I think of the help Yagus gave me when I first entered the magic world, and then compare it with my attitude towards him.

I can’t wait to give myself two slaps!

Dumbledore came to Argus and patted Argus's shoulder with his big palm.

"Don't worry, Harry is a good boy who knows how to love, but he is a little confused now."

"When he can really see the future, he will understand your efforts, Argus."

...

In the remaining time, Argus had a detailed discussion with Professor McGonagall and Allen on how to search for Sirius.

Even though Argus knew it was futile, he still pretended to be very attentive.

Fudge discussed the problem of Dementors with Dumbledore and Rosmerta on the side.

The last time the Dementors attacked the Quidditch field. It was simply rubbing Dumbledore's red line on the ground.

Not only did they hurt Harry, but they also attacked so many young wizards in Hogwarts!

How could Dumbledore, the headmaster, tolerate this!

But Fudge is no longer the puppet minister and soft persimmon at the beginning!

He is obviously much tougher when he speaks, and dares to refute Dumbledore's words!

What a pity. Harry was in no mood to listen to what was said in the room.

His mind was in a mess, and he just wanted to find a place to calm down.

After Argus and others finished their discussion and opened the door, he rushed out impatiently.
